On top of everything else in this rather peculiar day, someone came up to me in a shop and said, "Can I help... Oh! Are you Della? Della RBHGM?"*

Had a moment of thinking, "Err... Am I in trouble?" But said, "Yes." And she said that she recognised me because she reads my work and her son wants to submit some stuff and so on. She was really nice and I was really surprised.

At least it was a bit more normal than that time someone in a Body Shop store asked me if I was famous or on Neighbours because I looked so familiar. And to be honest, I can see how being famous and being on Neighbours are not necessarily things that go together.

* Not my real name, obviously. And they didn't call me that, but by my actual name instead.
